While Cadence Weapon (aka Roland Pemberton) wrote the song "Real Estate" before the current financial crisis began rearing its disastrous head, its message is particularly poignant right at this moment. The new video for "Real Estate" brings home the young performer's premonition of the financial mess he predicted on his March release, Afterparty Babies. Dressed to the nines and moving property at alarming rates, the ever-acute Cadence provides some comic, if timely, relief to the ongoing Bailout-palooza in his crushing parody of the misguided occupation of buying and selling. See the video for "Real Estate" here.

After a whirlwind 2008, marked by the critically acclaimed release of his sophomore album Afterparty Babies, and over 100 performances across North America and Europe - including stops at Lollapalooza, Glastonbury, V-Fest and Roskilde -- Cadence Weapon (aka Roland Pemberton) is back with his first ever headlining tour across Canada.
